Search Feature
This feature can be accessed in any one of the
following three ways:
1. choose Edit>Search>Query If the Search Feature does
not behave as described choose
File>Preferences>Search
and set the Acrobat
Search Preferences as shown: 2. choose the
button
3. choose the bookmark “Search” Once you have opened the search, you will be viewing a window where you will
then type the text that you would like to search. You can type in a single word, a
number, a term, or a phrase. It can be a word, with or without wild-card characters (*, ?), or any combination
of letters, numbers, and symbols. Because you can use Boolean operators in the text box, you must enclose any
search term that includes “and”, “or”, or “not” in quotes. For more information, go to the Help menu and
then to Reader Guide.
To clear the search dialog box and redefine the search, click Clear.
To narrow your search, select one or more of the search options: Word Stemming, Sounds Like,
Thesaurus, Match Case, or Proximity. For information on how these options affect your search
query go to the Help menu then Reader Guide.
Select Search Results. The Search Results box will pop up with the documents that contain matches to your
search query and they will be listed in the Search Results window in order of relevancy. The relevancy ranking
of each document is indicated by an
icon. The degree of fill in the circle in the icon indicates
the probability that the document contains the search information. A solid fill indicates a high probability that
the document contains your search term; an empty circle indicates a low probability that the document contains your search term.
When you use the Proximity option, the closer the matches are within a document, the higher the relevancy
ranking of that document.
You can then double-click a document that seems likely to contain the relevant information, probably the first
document in the list. The document opens on the first match for the text you typed. From this point you can
move from page-to-page or word-to-word depending on the preferences that you have set for your search. For
more information on changing the preference go to File>Preferences>Search>Highlight>Display. Click the
Search Next button
or Search Previous
button to go to other matches in the document, or choose
another document to view by using the Search Results button in the toolbar. This will display all of the documents that have occurrences of the word that you are searching. | v v The McGraw-Hill Companies | e-Text Main Menu | Textbook Table of Contents | Study Guide ...
